Direct intervention will be given to address your child's specific Speech, Language, and Pre-Reading skills.
Speech Therapy
Provided to improve your child's intelligibility and production of speech sounds. Techniques include targeting specific speech sounds (articulation therapy) and/or groups of speech sounds (phonology therapy). In some cases, oral-motor therapy may be recommended to strengthen and improve the range of motion of the oral structures for correct speech sound production.
Language Therapy
Our language approach improves your child's understanding and use of language. Specific language skills include: language concepts, vocabulary, and comprehension & use of spoken language. Strategies are developed and implemented to facilitate problem solving, reasoning, and thought processing so that your child becomes an independent thinker and learner.
Pre-Reading Development
Our pre-reading program is based on the Orton-Gillingham approach. This program is a highly successful, systematic, multisensory, reading and language arts program that is research-based and time tested. Specific skills include: phonological awareness, print and book awareness, letter knowledge and early word recognition, motivation to read, knowledge of literary forms, and written expression.
* Other areas of learning include: math, science, social studies, fine arts, and health & safety.
